Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California
Bad Credit
My boyfriend has really bad credit with accounts in collections. I have great credit. We are thinking of getting married. Can his collectors come after me to collect debt he accrued before we were married?

Re: Bad Credit
Yes - because your income will be community income after you are married.
If his debt is substantial, he should probably file bankruptcy before you marry him.
To explore further, my office is at 732 State Street in El Centro.
